School Computer Curriculum

Saint Agnes School has a LANS network within the school building. It is Ethernet based and it runs into every room in the school. Each classroom has the potential of four networkable computers, the computer lab has the potential for 35 networkable computers; and all other rooms in the school have two networkable outlets. At present, each classroom has 1-4 networked Macintosh that are Internet accessible. The computer lab has 30 iMacs that are Ethernet networked and Internet accessible. The various extra-curricular teachers each have their own Macintosh with Internet, and the office staff each has their own PC. In addition, the Library houses 3 iMacs that are networked for the Scholastic Reading Counts program.

Our network is managed by a router, nine hubs, and a fiber optics line coming into the building. Our Internet Service Provider is the Diocese of Springfield at the Diocesan Office on West Washington Street. Because of the close proximity, our fiber optics connection allows us to share a WAN (Wide Area Network) with Sacred Heart-Griffin and the Diocesan office.

The school has a web site which can be found at stagnes.dio.org and e-mail contacts may be made to individual classes or staff as listed on each web page. General e-mails to the school may addressed to stagnes@dio.org.

The Scholastic Reading Counts program is networked to every computer in the school as part of our library program and book reporting by the students.

As a general explanation, the following gives a rough outline of what is covered at each grade level:
